    Imo the 44magnum doesn’t need to be suppressed, I’ve used it 100’s of times over dogs and that’s what I like about it.
    I have two a Rossi 16” and a Ruger 16”.
    I have “bail rounds’ (low pressure) loaded second down and hot rounds on top and below.
    Cutting a 16” and putting a can on is a waste of effort for no gain.

    I took two stags in Ashley Forest some years back side by side on a road at over 120m, we were amazed I hit them but really amazed how they were sacked on the spot!- sausages for 12 months!
    A great caliber and really under-utilised in the bush for deer.
